Horslips

Horslips are an Irish celtic rock band that compose, arrange and perform songs based on traditional Irish jigs and reels. The group are regarded as 'founding fathers of celtic rock' for their fusion of traditional Irish music with rock music and went on to inspire many local and international acts. They formed in 1970 and 'retired' in 1980 for an extended period. The name originated from a spoonerism on The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse which became "The Four Poxmen of The Horslypse". more »

With your face to the wind 
You're beginning to think of a new life, 
And you pull tight your cloak 'round your throat
And the wind seems to sing, 
Though we're both on the run from a place in the sun and it's raining, 
And there's strangers and dangers and darkness 
We're still going to win. 
So don't you cry, don't you fear, 
Wipe away each lonely tear. 

If I were king of morning and you were queen of day, 
We'd love all summer long together, 
Love would find a way. 
If I were king of evening and you were queen of night, 
We'd pass the time in pleasure, 
We'd love until the morning light. 
If I were king of pleasure and you were queen of pain 
You would love me. 

As the rain starts to fall, I recall how it was 
In the good times, 
When the sun seemed to shine 
And the wine was a gift from above, 
But I know that the day's on the way 
And it's bringing the sunshine, 
So sing me a song, make it long, 
Make it all about love.
